The Approximate Solution of the Nonlinear Exact Equation of Deflection of an Elastic Beam with the Galerkin Method

Calculating the large deflection of a cantilever beam is one of the common problems in engineering. The differential equation of a beam under large deformation, or the typical elastica problem, is hard to approximate and solve with the known solutions and techniques in Cartesian coordinates. The exa...
